    theminnesotanman reacted to LordGabeNisBae in Whats better 115i or NH-D15 for ryzen 1700x?   
    Swap out a 1700 non-x, get a smaller PSU~550W. Get rid of the hdd and invest in a better monitor and more case fans. No point getting a 1080ti and a 1080p screen. You can always add more hdd space later, 500gbssd is pretty adequate.
     
    As for NHD-15 vs h115i. The performance should be similar albeit better on the watercooler. Also the watercooler puts less stran on the mobo as there is not a massive block of metal hanging off it and the heat is directly exhausted out of the case and not left to the case airflow to deal with.
     
    personaly I would get the aircooler as it is a quality product a d should never leak or fail on you. And the fans you get are quality.

    1) install the RX 480 into the first PCIe x16 slot, connect your monitor to it
    2) install the 270 into the second PCIe x16 slot
    3) configure your mining tool to use the 270 only
    4) done
     
    650W PSU should do it, unless its quality is crap

    theminnesotanman reacted to Droidbot in Droidbot's SATA3 SSD Tier List   
    Droidbot's Long Ass SATA 3 SSD Tier List 

    Arranged in the following order: Tier 1 (Amazing), Tier 2 (Still Good), Tier 3 (Mediocre), Tier 4 (Not The Greatest), Tier 5 (Avoid)
    Performance are what SSDs are rated on, value is mentioned based on price at current update. Keep TLC/MLC/SLC in mind before purchase : https://tinyurl.com/slcmlctlc (Does not apply to 3D VNAND, different)
    Current Update: 6/04/16 (Changenotes at bottom)

    Tier 1:
    - Samsung 850 EVO/PRO (Generally the highest performing SATA SSDs, hands down) (TLC-3D VNAND)
    - SK Hynix SL308 (Very good value, almost 850-tier performance for $50 less, as well as low power usage, good for laptops!) (TLC)
    - OCZ VX500 (Very good performance and value, better than Trion/Vector) (MLC)
    - Corsair Force LE (Very good value at high capacities with good performance) (TLC)
    - Corsair Neutron XTI (Very good performance, but high price) (MLC) 
    - MyDigitalSSD BP5e (Very good performance, very low price) (TLC) 
    - Crucial BX100 / Mushkin Reactor (Not as bad as BX200, and surprisingly amazing performance) (MLC)
    Tier 2: 
    - Crucial MX300/MX200 (Very good value with strange capacities) (TLC-3D VNAND)
    - ADATA SU800 512GB (Good value, good performance) (TLC-3D VNAND)
    - OCZ Trion 150 / Vector 180 (Very good performance, but can choke in some situations) (TLC)
    - SanDisk Extreme Pro / WD Black (Good performance, high price and not good value) (MLC)
    - PNY CS2211 (Very good value with better performance) (MLC)
     
    Tier 3: 
    - ADATA SP900 (Decent performance, decent value) (MLC) 
    - WD Blue / SanDisk X400 (Decent performance, very mediocre.. expensive for what it is) (TLC)
    - Intel 540S (Not the best value, but not the worst either. Decent performance) (TLC)
    - OCZ Trion 150 (Not the best value, not the worst performance either) (TLC)
    - Samsung 750 EVO (Mediocre SSD, above average performance. Dies in the ass under heavy loads) (TLC)
    - Intel 530 (Decent average performance, handles load quite well) (20nm MLC, be careful of endurance!)
    - Crucial MX100 (Doesn't handle load very well, similar to the M550, but good overall performance besides that) (20nm MLC, be careful of endurance!)
    - Intel 730 (Good performance, handles load quite well) (20nm MLC, be careful of endurance!)
    - ADATA SU800 128/256GB (Decent performance, dies in the ass under heavy loads) (TLC-3D VNAND)
    - SanDisk Ultra II/Ultra PLUS (Alright average performance, doesn't handle heavy loads that well) (TLC)
    - Mushkin Triactor (Good performance, good value) (TLC)
    - PNY CS1311 (Very good value with good performance) (TLC)
     
    Tier 4:
    - SanDisk SSD PLUS / Z410 (Inconsistent performance, pretty cheap. Changes components often.) (MLC)
    - Kingston HyperX Fury (Good read, mediocre write speeds) (SMLC)
    - Plextor M6S (Doesn't handle load very well, worse than MX100, but average performance) (MLC)
    - OCZ Trion 100 (Mediocre performance, slow as fuck writes, not recommended, the 150 is better) (19nm TLC)
     
    Tier 5: 
    - Samsung 840 EVO (has issues with the cells wearing out quickly, don't buy used) (19nm TLC)
    - Kingston SSDNOW V300 (reviews are good, but sketchy shit pulled by Kingston make this bad) (MLC)
    - Crucial BX200 (bad performance for the money, horrible latency and service times) (early TLC) 
    - Kingston SSDNOW UV400 (mediocre performance, slow reads, go for something better) (early TLC)
    - OCZ TL100 (VERY SHIT performance, 94MB/s Seq Writes for fucks sake) (TLC)
    - ADATA SP550 (Trades blows with the BX200, a little faster and without the BX200's flaws, however APPARENTLY has cell drift like the 840 EVO as reported by @zMeul) (TLC)
     
    How I rate SSDs:
     
    Any requests for new SSDs to be added with proof or other SSDs to be changed with proof are welcome.
